We offer four plan types, so you can get just the right fit for you or your family. Families might be interested in the Diamond Plan with unlimited office visits. Young singles might be interested in the Silver Plan, which offers our lowest premium. Two plans even cover acupuncture and chiropractic treatments. All our plans feature the quality care that you’ve come to trust from Kaiser Permanente.

Choose the plan that’s best for you.

Meet the ParksMay and Ken Park have one child: Lee, age 4.1 Because young children visit the pediatrician frequently, the Parks choose the Diamond Plan, which covers unlimited office visits.

Here’s how they use their plan over the year:

n Preventive care: May, Ken, and Lee each get annual checkups. Since the Diamond Plan covers one preventive visit per calendar year at no charge, the family pays nothing for these exams. Lee’s immunizations are no charge.

n Lab and X-ray: Ken’s primary care physician orders some tests to diagnose a stomach problem. Ken pays 10 percent of the applicable charges for the test and X-ray.

n Prescription drugs: Ken’s physician prescribes a medication. Ken pays a $15 copay for the prescription.

n Alternative medicine: May sees a chiropractor a couple of times for her back pain. Ken visits an acupuncturist. They pay a $15 copay for each visit.2

Since the medical services clinic has doctors’ offices, lab, X-ray, and pharmacy under one roof, Ken simply walks down the hall to get his lab and X-ray done and his prescription filled. Plus, Ken’s doctor orders his lab test, X-ray, and prescription online, so the lab and X-ray offices are ready for Ken when he walks in. And his prescription is waiting for him at the pharmacy.

Meet Jason ChoiJason just graduated from college and is freelancing while he looks for his dream job.1 He’s active and healthy and plans to stay that way. He wants an affordable health care plan that covers preventive care as well as the big stuff—just in case. He chooses the Silver Plan, a plan with a low premium and limited coverage.

Here’s how Jason’s plan works over the year.

n Preventive care: Jason has an annual physical exam and immunizations for no charge.

Jason has an accident that requires him to have surgery.

n Hospital inpatient care: Jason is in the hospital for a few days following his surgery. His hospital stay is covered, so his copayment is $500 per day. Labs and X-rays done during his hospital stay are covered at no charge.

n Outpatient services: Outpatient and pharmacy services are not covered under Jason’s plan, so he pays full charge for follow-up doctor visits and prescription drugs.

Jason’s health coverage does exactly what he intends it to do: It helps keep him healthy with preventive care and also covers him for a catastrophic illness or accident.
